You should think about what makes you unique and what values you want to promote. This will help you to create a media kit that reflects your personal brand.
Gather Your Metrics
The next step you need to take is to collect your metrics. This includes data such as your follower count, engagement rates, and the demographics your content is going out to. You can easily find this on your social media platforms by going into your settings, or your professional account information – Insights. It is very important to be honest about your insights as this will help potential brands to understand your reach and engagement with your audience and see if you cater to their needs.
Showcase Your Best Work
Your media kit is like your resume and therefore it is important to understand that your media kit needs the best of your portfolio of work. This is where you can showcase and “show off” any work or collaborations with other influencers or brands. Choose examples that reflect your brand identity and demonstrate your ability to create engaging content. Remember to include insights such as engagement rates and reach for each collaboration.
Create a Pitch
Your pitch is an introduction. This is where you can provide more information about the type of collaborations or partnerships you are interested in and the services you can offer. Ensure you are clear about your rates and what you expect from potential brands or clients. This will help you set expectations as well as help you attract the correct type of clients.
Design Your Media Kit
Finally, it’s time to design your media kit. You can use tools such as Canva or Adobe Illustrator to create a professional and eye-catching design. Make sure that your media kit reflects your brand identity and includes all of the information that potential clients will need to make a decision. You should also include your contact information so that brands can easily get in touch with you.
